Elon Musk says he may have Covid-19, calls tests ‘extremely bogus’

Elon Musk tweeted he may have Covid-19 and renewed his conspiratorial posting about the virus that has infected almost 53 million people.

“Something extremely bogus is going on,” the chief executive officer wrote. “Was tested for covid four times today. Two tests came back negative, two came back positive.” The billionaire said he took a series of rapid antigen tests, which produce results within 15 minutes and are cheaper but less reliable than polymerase chain reaction tests.
